Installation Of An Outside Water Tap <\/span> (Tank Supplied)<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n

In some countries and states, it is illegal to do your own plumbing. Please be aware of your local state and federal rules regarding plumbing work. <\/span>When I brought my house the first thing I noticed was there were only 2 taps outside. One out the back one out the front. <\/span>There was also a 9000 Liter Water Tank which was connected to a pump and tap to water the back garden only<\/span><\/p>\n

This was just not practical to run 40m of hosepipe whenever I wanted to water the garden. <\/span>So I decided to run another length of pipe from the tap out the back to install a new water tap around the side.<\/span><\/p>\n
